There is a WIN_USE command in QLay, so you can do WIN_USE FLP for
example.
The disk definitely have QDOS IDs.
Not to worry, it all works fine with DSDD QDOS disks, so I can
transfer like that using QLTOOLSQ, just that DD disks are slightly
slower to copy than HD ones. There is very little that I want to copy
which won't fit on DD disks.

Seems it really was the cheap far-east imports situation. All of the
really cheap ones seem to have disappeared. Companies which stock the
slightly more expensive european compatibles are still selling them.
